Lads, I'm looking for a decent bottle(s) of prosecco, lowest price but decent one, havent got a clue about them, just taste like pissh to me, if anyone can point me in right direction would be great, cheers.

There's probably cheaper ones out there but this is on offer in O'Briens for €12.95.
* Rizzardi Prosecco Frizzante
* https://www.obrienswine.ie/products/rizzardi-prosecco-frizzante

Tesco have some prosecco in their 6 for €40 dealing running at the moment e.g.
* Prosecco Frizzante Borsari
* I Heart Prosecco
* https://www.tesco.ie/groceries/Product/Details/?id=295037230

Edit: If you don't need 6 bottles of prosecco you can mix and match it with other reds and whites in the deal.

I haven't tried that one but the one I mentioned is light and crispy and doesn't have that acrid taste like some Proseccos. Like the one in Lidl for 8 euro is rough but if you get the 11 euro bottle in Lidl in a white and black bottle is much nicer.
Who is it for for? You could get 3 bottles of I Heart and maybe 3 bottles of wines

Its for the carers/neighbours( i live far away) looking after the mother, she's adamant on prosecco, I'll go with the i heart prosecco seems the safest bet, I'll get the wine deal myself, have tesco vouchers which will help, thank you for your help much appreciated.

It is nice and I'm fussy. I've had 30 euro bottles of cava which weren't as tasty. Good luck

I can recommend the Aldi organic prosecco for no hangover.

It's not overly sweet and it's €15.
I don't know if it's considered a good one maybe some other posters can comment but defo no hangover from it so I buy it.

Sometimes you don’t get the same deals in a Tesco express, from memory both on baggot street are Tesco express

That's the one I mentioned. It is nice but the poster has Tesco deal on their mind. I love that gin too, good call.

I think it was in the train of conversation that followed. Good advice though, that prosecco is lovely.

Lidl are doing a 6 for €40 wine promotion starting 12th November according to the latest leaflet, up to €9.34 each, "see in store for full range".

7 Pictured wines with scores out of 100 from their wine expert are:
Chilean Malbec 84
South Africa Chenin Blanc 86
Australian Cabernet Sauvignon 87
New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc 90
Chilean Merlot 84
Australian Chardonnay 88
&
a Shiraz 86

Good prices if they are that good.

Full display in Tesco Liffey Valley- they also have a pallet load of the 30 quid Roe and Co. Nothing else though- even the 'premium whiskey shelf' is empty (and they only have display boxes out anyway- to mitigate against shoplifters).

If it's the 'animal' range as opposed to the Cimarossa then yes the reds are all lovely. Haven't tried the whites.
e.g. the Chilean Resvera Privada merlot with the 'seal' picture on the bottle

Anyone know how much is a 70 cl of Jameson Whiskey in SUPERVALU at the moment. It was €30 earlier last week but I think its reduced now.

Saw the Jameson Black Barrel underneath the champagne shelf in Athlone Tesco (Golden Island) last night (nowhere near the usual whiskey shelves) :rolleyes:
